Commercial leadership, from strategy to operation

I help owners and investors establish clear commercial priorities and put the people, processes and partnerships in place to deliver them.

My involvement can range from strategic advisory and fractional commercial leadership to an operating partnership with responsibility for agreed business functions. Each engagement starts with a clear scope, decision-making authority, budget and reporting structure.

How I Can Help

Commercial Strategy

Define the business model, revenue priorities, customer proposition and route to market, with a practical plan for delivery.

Operating Partnerships

Lead agreed business operations, coordinate teams and specialist partners, and report progress against an agreed operating plan.

Acquisition Transition

Assess commercial and operational requirements, plan the handover and establish priorities for the first 100 days after completion.

Revenue & Partnerships

Develop sales processes, marketing activity and strategic partnerships to support customer acquisition and commercial growth.
